Mission Statement
Community Alliance for Global Justice educates and mobilizes with individuals and organizations to strengthen local economies everywhere. CAGJ is grassroots, community-based and committed to anti-oppressive organizing as we build solidarity across diverse movements. CAGJ seeks to transform unjust trade and agricultural policies and practices imposed by corporations, governments and other institutions while creating and supporting alternatives that embody social justice, sustainability, diversity and grassroots democracy.
Description
CAGJ is a grassroots organization with hundreds of members throughout the Puget Sound area who are committed to working for a more just economy both locally and globally. Members work on issues of promoting fair trade policy, support local economies, undoing institutional racism, and supporting immigrant rights. What We Do: **Community Education - We provide workshops and presentations about corporate globalization, trade agreements and positive economic alternatives, and we have a lending library of books and videos on these issues. **Grassroots Organizing - We build solidarity with allied organizations, mobilize locally through citizen outreach and train new leaders for social change. **Research - We research the impacts of trade agreements on people in Washington State and promote equitable and sustainable alternatives. **Media Outreach - We voice Fair Trade perspectives in the media by providing thoughtful analysis to journalists and by writing op/eds and rapid response letters-to-the-editor. **Legislative Action - We educate voters, draft Fair Trade resolutions and meet with candidates and elected officials to advocate for Fair Trade policies.
